About this episode

OpenAI President Greg Brockman and his wife recently backed out of a planned $25 million donation to Leading the Future, an artificial intelligence-focused political action committee.


Brockman said the PAC had become a “distraction” at OpenAI. But only after the executive had already given an initial $25 million.


AI-focused PACs are spending big to shape competing visions for AI policy in the midterm elections.


Brendan Glavin, Director of Insights at OpenSecrets, explains how these PACS are looking to influence elections this year.
